We closely inspect the soundboard of every piano we restore.

Thanks to the quality of wood and hand craftsmanship that was used in the making of early century pianos, some soundboards we encounter are still in excellent condition. We simply give them a thorough cleaning and move on to the remainder of the restoration.

In many cases our inspection reveals small cosmetic cracks in a soundboard that is otherwise still in excellent condition. In these situations, our craftsmen will carefully remove, repair and refinish the original manufacturer’s soundboard.

There are times when the soundboard is damaged beyond repair or the crown of the soundboard has flattened out over time. In these cases, our master-craftsmen apply their unparalleled skills to create a premium custom-tailored soundboard.
